People always ask us, "What can I expect at a meeting? How many people attend?". Well, our meetings typically range from 12 to 22 people. We start our meetings with brief introductions. The introductions center around what you need from the Group. After that, it is an open discussion addressing as many topics as we can in the time we have. Each meeting is led by a facilitator (or facilitators). Their role is to just keep the discussions on track and promote healthy discussion. All participation is voluntary and some visiting members choose to just listen their first time. It is all up to you! For a more detailed description of our support group meetings, please see the chapter's meeting guidelines. Hope to see you there!!!
Welcome to the Tucson Chapter of the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance!
Our chapter meets to provide peer support for those with mood disorders. Our meetings are free of charge and are open to anyone. We meet every Wednesday and Sunday night! We welcome not only those with mood disorders, but their friends and/or family as well. We offer a safe place to get emotional support, build self-esteem and become more educated about our disorders. Hopefully you will find the resources that you are looking for here. If you don't see it, don't be afraid to ask one of us!!!
